# Will the loose supply of domestic urea gradually ease? | ECHEMI

> China's domestic urea market is loose as operating rates eased to 78.82% and daily output fell to about 161,500 tons. Analysts expect the surplus to ease as producers carry out maintenance and exports are digested, while India's pandemic-related disruption extends the export blockade to at least end-April.

## Why it matters

A loose Chinese market with output still high weighs on export prices, but the expected maintenance and the blocked Indian flows could tighten supply later and lift urea prices.
